They work and are an accepted way to do shit in the community compared to other types of donation drive, and for the most part dont require investment (i.e merch) besides a streamer's own time and possibly health if they're retarded
Its honestly a decent way to earn money if you can do one as a chuuba
Kaela is back in her element even in Japan, streamed 4 hours and still going strong. She plans on streaming until management catches wind and tells her to stop.

Numberfag in me wants Kaela to do a subathon, but she doesn't care about views/subs at all herself and just wants to game. So I just want to support her streaming all day because that's what really matters.
What I really hope is Kaela does more experimental stuff like Kaelgeskia or Ckia or the Kaela Cinematic experience.
An anime dog girl told me she believes in me to find enough strength to get through the rest of the week. Now I understand how that wageslave from Helpful Fox Senko-san has felt, it's like you're happy and at the same time you feel slightly embarassed that it was enough to make you happy. Check for yourselves.
Kinolime playing CK2 again, and it is most likely the finale per her word since Scotland collapsed, barely owns where Scotland actually is, and is currently in a war for survival against the English.
Sora made a quick message for getting to 6 years today. Considering all the graduations and messed up stuff that's happened over the years, I'm glad she's not only still around but happy with herself and motivated to keep going.
Tomorrow she'll be doing a special acoustic live to celebrate and dropping a new cover afterwards.
All my thanks to her, A-chan and Yagoo for starting this massive home for broken women.
They feel overdone, I can't bring myself to watch long streams unless they are very interesting. Subathons really do just feel like they come from twitch culture of watching streams for hours and hours where the streamer is more important than the content. Still a valid strategy as long as you can squeeze more money out of retards.
Which is funny when you think about the model creation stages, most models should have a nude base they can toggle (since it makes getting outfits easier)
Subathons/donothons used to be great til Ironmouse et all made it acceptable to be "normal" content, now it's the easiest way to be lazy (let's be real) and hope you have enough simps or an oil baron stroll by and make money. Literally peak western culture.
Did you know that the virtual youtuber wiki currently has about 1,500 entries for virtual youtubers that speak English? If each talent did one subathon every four years you'd still hear about one every day. And that 1,500 entries is an underestimation - how many one-views aren't big enough to have an entry on the wiki? Our resident poster/vtuber Murray doesn't have an entry yet, for example.
As for subathons themselves, I actually don't mind them, providing they're done sparingly by an individual talent and there's a good underlying goal. For a watcher, there can be lots of extra content than what you'd normally get, collabs, and vtubers doing things they might not otherwise do that I would find entertaining. And a lot of talents use the opportunity to improve stream quality, such as new computer equipment, new assets, and so forth. And if there's something I don't like about the donothon or the person running it, well, it's easy enough to not donate or find alternate content. I don't see the problem.
Therein-lies the problem. They do it as regular content now lol. You can guarantee to see someone do a donothon or subathon every other week at this point.
Is the same person doing subathons repeatedly? Or are you following a fairly large group of vtubers and you hear about a different talent doing a different donothon every week?
Generally the same set of people I follow have them near constantly. I ignore September because of the "Subtember" shit Twitch does. I'm in the mind that if it happens every couple of months or even a year or on milestones (i.e anniversary or bday) it's cool, but sometimes people start donothons for the smallest of things so it feels like it happens far too often.
